The three women's hearts leaped into their throats.
This Wolf King was far too powerful.
With a single swipe of his claw, he had nearly torn the barrier apart. If he struck a few more times, how could it possibly hold?
Once the pack broke in, none of them would survive.
"What do we do?"
"What do we do?"
The three women looked at one another, frantic as ants on a hot pan, yet none could think of a solution.
A long while passed.
Only then did Leng Yue speak. "What if we take a risk and go out to lure the pack away? It's vast out there, with thick fog everywhere. If we get far enough, the wolves might not catch us..."
The Ancestral Heaven Flower Goddess went pale with fright.
"Go out and lure them away?"
"Have you lost your mind?"
"With our strength, we'd probably become their food the moment we stepped outside the barrier. How could we possibly lure them away?"
Leng Yue turned to look at the Ancestral Heaven Flower Goddess, her gaze sharp. "Are you afraid?"
"I... that's not what I mean. I mean we can't lure them away. Going out would mean dying for nothing. If we all die, there'll be no one left to protect Li Yun."
"Leng Yue, the Flower Goddess is right. We're not strong enough to lure them away. Going out would mean dying for nothing. It wouldn't be worth it..."
The Snow Woman rejected Leng Yue's proposal as well.
But just then...
Beyond the barrier, deep in the fog, another enormous beast's roar rang out.
It sounded like a tiger.
Low and savage.
The thick fog rolled like waves, surging toward the Invisible Barrier and crashing against it in a towering billow.
The next moment...
A Black Giant
